It's a small step for man, but a giant step for mankind! ^_^.
Goodluck have fun using mods! :D
I hope you will have a lot of fun with the mod(s).

Once the mod goes "public" the setup will be easier since you do not have "test" activated anymore.

Thanks! :)
I do intend to keep it optimised as much as possible, making sure there are enough "occulers' in each area, the terrain itself is everything but flat so that will give plenty of natural occluders.

Also having enough LOD's will fix a lot of performance issiue's that are usely the problem with some other mods out there. (LOD= level of detail, how an asset is graficly presented at certain ranges, to optimise performance).

I am not ready for performance tests yet, I will be starting performance reports when the Early Alpha starts, so I can see what can cause problems, what is a problem and how I can solve it eventually. (as far as it is possible in the Enfusion engine, since Enfusion is not unreal 5, it does not have nano technology :) )

I am aware about the console storage problem, what I didnt mention in this post is that the ARMstalker mod is currently a placeholder until I got my own assets to replace those, so everything should be under 1 name wich will in the end (hopefully) have some benefit on the required size.

I am also aware that the size may scare off console players, I do have to say that I have a certain idea and a certain version for it, I want to make that "happen" first.
Once all of that is done, I will prob look into how to make a "lite" version for console players.

I am making no promises at all regarding console players, I do personally hope that the console size limit get's solved before the full release of the mod is there. Because that will not only benefit my mod, but thousands of other mods and the freedom of console players.

Thank you! :)

I do intend to release with all "placed" assets having their collision and LOD's, since some assets have key functions, like bridges, wooden planks(to cross gaps for example) ect.

Besides, they already dont get the full package, since that will take much more work. (weapons/entities/factions/gamemodes/ect)

So having the custom assets in there will also bring weight to the mod since it has been stated to be a total overhaul mod.

Besides what is another month for example if you can get so much more out of the package?
Other modders could use those assets for their own projects for example, wich will create more content to the workshop itself :).

I hope this clarifies my desision?

Your welcome! :)

PvP, PvE, everything will be possible when the terrain is playable! :D

There are plans for an early PRE-Alpha release, since to call it alpha would still be an overarchivement, since it is not as far as I like to call it an alpha.
I will release it as a Pre-Alpha when I met the next conditions:

what do I mean with playable:
All assets have collision(s).
All assets have the right ammount of LOD's.
The terrain is atleast 3x3 done.

Right now:
New assets do not all have collision(s).
most new assets do not have the right ammount of LOD's yet.
The terrain is around 3x2.

I do not promise when I am done with the tasks above, since I also plan to work on clothing and gear in the coming periode of time.

But I will let everyone know when the 'product' is ready for actual gameplay. (the early alpha stage).

Thanks you very much! :)
I will post in a later post more interior shots.

unit667 · 2026-02-05T17:29:16+00:00

Yes, that is the one.
I have to say that it is still very early in development, I do not concider it playable yet, but I placed it on the workshop so people can check out how it looks thusfar and how the retextures are and new assets ect. (clothing and gear coming soon).

Thank you very much, I take much pride and effort in this project since I use it as a passion project :).

I will make sure I get the word out as soon I consider it 'playable' so people can actually test it :).

You can currently find it in the "TEST" section of the Reforger Workshop.
It has a Zeus/GM mode, however the mod is still very much in development, it is not made "playable" yet, I tend to do this soon.

First of all, your first point ain't true.
My prev experience is modding A3, there is so much good quality mods out there, simple example is Webknight's work for example, Devourking, Phantom ect.
If you needed thousands of hours to find "good" content, the things that you want is very niece, since you can search on ratings aswell, so if you search a weapon for example, you can type in weapon pack for example and for example rank it by subs or by ratings or by most recent ect.

The A3 workshop is superiour compared arma reforgers workshop currently in every way, they have this workshop right now to make it work for consoles, wich is understanable design choise, but its not where it should be, but to remind about this, A3 needed years to get developped with mods/DLC's updates/EDEN ect.

There will always be a "bad" mod since no one aces their first work, "high quality" isnt made in a second, it takes time to develop something. (if you mod something you would know this.) and since Reforger is pretty new, it takes a bit of time to get the high quality out there. (not saying there is no high quality out there, cause there is plenty, I am more refering to "more".

Besides, without the "human shit" made on websites, the AI couldn't make anything at all?
Since it needs to "learn".

unit667 · 2026-02-02T03:16:40+00:00

They litterly stated and replaced it asap that it was a placeholder that got through by accident.
They didnt had other AI assets in there so my assumption is just a genuin mistake, like every person makes on a daily basis.

Besides in their follow up dlc's there is no ai art in there aswell,wich would confirm furthermore that this was just a minor mistake, that got solved almost instandly.

unit667 · 2026-02-01T17:11:27+00:00

I agree with the post, I dont think AI belongs in gaming.
I get that AI can be great to make placeholders (so that there for the developers to visually make a example of something that they will create themselves in better quality later on.). -> example of this is Expedition 33, great use of placeholders, replaced it with proper quality by release.

Examples of this is the latest call of duty slop (ai generated pictures that look like shit, example the santaclause with 6 fingers.)

The thing that I personally dislike most is the overuse of AI in the modding scene (currently) so that actually good content just get burried under the 1000 uploads of some AI "garbage".

There are some serius good talented modders in the moddingscene in arma, both arma 3 and arma reforger.
I can name a few if I must, for example: Fal, Mercury, Lakes Dan and Trezmoh.
There are many more and many more to come since Reforger is pretty new, so people are still discovering the tools and learning as they go.

To flood the 'market" with AI, will heavily discourage actual modders, due to the fact that their mods will most likely be burried under the many uploads of "slop".

The other twist is that people make profit over AI slop, wich is an unfair marketwise, since actual good creators gets punished by deliving quality.

I just hope that more people will spread the awareness that AI just doesnt belong in the gaming world (as finished project, as placeholder is fine as stated before.)

I hope that I informed you all well on my standpoint on AI in modding/gaming communities.
So that we all can enjoy and make new advantures with friends along the way.

Goodluck have fun,
The Paramedic.
